“The trouble is not that I am single and likely to stay single, but that I am lonely and likely to stay lonely.”

“The human heart has hidden treasures, In secret kept, in silence sealed; The thoughts, the hopes, the dreams, the pleasures, Whose charms were broken if revealed.”

“I knew you would do me good in some way, at some time--I saw it in your eyes when I first beheld you.”
